This is the first textbook to provide a complete overview of counselling psychology. Covering not only the underlying principles and philosophy of the profession, it offers a uniquely applied perspective in a concise, student-friendly format.
From the relationship between research and practice to key ethical and professional issues, the book is written by some of the most eminent academic and practising psychologists in the field. It initially defines what counselling psychology and a therapeutic relationship involves, before outlining the range of approaches that can be taken with clients, from CBT to psychodynamic perspectives, and the journey of training through to working as a counselling psychologist.
Supported by case studies and a range of features to illustrate how theory can be applied to practice, this is the ideal companion for courses in applied counselling psychology. The integrated and interactive approach covers the personal and professional issues which counselling psychologists face, making this the definitive introduction for any student of this growing field of study.
'With contributions from founders, established professionals and relative newcomers, Dr Galbraith’s edited book offers an insider’s perspective of the most vibrant of psychological professions. It is a delight to see the multiple and intersecting strands of ethics, research and practice side by side, enriching as they do the pluralistic stance of this applied psychology. This is an accessible and easy to read introductory text that will find a place on every good psychology undergraduate reading list. The book will also be invaluable for those considering making the transition from interested outsider to trainee in the field.' - Professor Martin Milton, Regents University London, UK
